In the 2 pts with graft failure from acute rejection, ECMO duration was 5 and 6 days; both regained normal heart function and were successfully decannulated without complications. Key words: ECMO, Heart Transplant, Graft Failure, Acute Hemodynamic Rejection Background: Ventricular assist device (VAD) support is well established in treating adults with end-stage heart disease. Key words: Mechanical circulatory support, Pediatric, VAD, Congenital Heart Disease, and Cardiomyopathy Background: Measurement of whole blood B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels has been shown to detect heart failure in adults presenting with dyspnea in the acute setting. Key words: levosimendan, heart failure, cardiomyopathy Methods: 20 children were studied, age range from 2 to 192 months (median 32.5 months).	./cache/cord-006236-2gpwf4z2.txt	./txt/cord-006236-2gpwf4z2.txt
